#verigreens

[almightyhamslice]

sorry i havent been posting bugs lately. I did not give up I'm just late. day 4's prompt was Lesson, so here's Zarojo trying (and failing) to teach Fulgor how to use a Kolour Cannon. Suzy watches and giggles to herself at Zarojo's outburst, she thinks it's cute.

I haven't posted much of Suzy on here-- she's a queen paper wasp n she has this sorta maternal subtly military role towards the hymenopterans of Flowered City? I saw her in a dream n she primarily exists as a contrast between what Krud military is like versus what Verigreen troops are like. Zarojo is not her child, but she feels a sense of kinship with them and is technically their commander. Verries live in a very pacifistic society so Suzy prefers the diplomatic route, but is not opposed to pelting her foes with pollen if necessary. I don't think she's killed anyone but don't let her warm demeanor and cute appearance fool you, she is a master of psychological warfare.

This year's prompt list is now Revealed!

RULES

Each art must be Insektors related, Crossovers however, are welcome

You're welcome to do hand drawn or digital art

OCs are Allowed

AUs are Allowed, including Sub-AUs

Mild Violence are allowed but no over the top gore

No NSFW

Let your imagination run wild and have fun!

Like last year's there are some returning prompts. There is a few prompts that I want to explain.

Story Arc - There are four arcs in Insektors. I did come up with fanmade names for each of them. Planet Origins (The Escape and The Black Planet), Lost Secrets (Godfrey's Secret, Krud Confession and Sick at Heart), The Virus (Epidemic and The Cure) and Under Depths (A Spektre Calls and The Cave). In this prompt, the drawing must be based on the arc-themed episodes.

Reverse - AU related. The AU is simply if the Kruds and Verigreens switch sides. The Kruds are on the good side and are called Buds who defend their flowery forest from intruders and take care of the prism and The Verigreens are on the bad side and are called The Veriglooms, a group of rebels who live in a landfill with thorns.

Celebration - This will be themed around celebrating the 30th anniversary of the series.

STORY TIME!

-Max puts on the headset using Synapse's Memory Projector. The machine turns on and Max appears in the Krud Throne Room as a hologram. He looks around and sees the audience and Draffsack waiting nervously. Kopius bangs his staff and announces Queen Katheter's arrival to the throne room-

Kopius: Quivering subjects, be upstanding on this auspicious day, as I give you the woman you love to hate: Queen Katheter!

Hologram Max: Mum!

-Max runs towards his mother and looks at her but she does not notice him.-

Hologram Max: Sorry I was late for your birthday. There was a field of Flowers and I was willing to give you some.

-Katheter still did not notice him. This is because he is using the Memory Projector and as a hologram, he can only view the events that are happening. This means they can't hear him, can't see him, and cannot feel him.-

Draffsack: Your Majesty... May the sun's rays never penetrate the darkness of your soul. May fresh air never alleviate the stench of your being. and may the- Queen Katheter: Where's my son?

Hologram Max: I'm right here, why can't anyone see me?

-Then a shine of Indigo is seen on the left, Hologram Synapse is formed-

Hologram Synapse: You're in the past.

Hologram Max: But I am.

Hologram Synapse: If you've used a time machine and interacted with everyone, they would notice you and it's very risky to interfere with the past. While using the Memory Projector, your body manifests into the form of a hologram, none of them will see us but we'll see them.

Hologram Max: So I just have to watch how it played out.

Hologram Synapse: Yes. It's just like watching a movie and I get the chance to take part in the ceremony.

-Synapse takes out of a popcorn out of thin air and munches on them-

Hologram Max: You didn't take part, guess that explains it. What were you doing during that time?

Hologram Synapse: Been busy working on Frogbucket.

-Then the past Max approaches the throne room.-

Kopius: Majesty, honored kruds; His tardiness, Prince Maximillian! -bangs his staff-

Hologram Max: There's me!

Hologram Synapse: Still the cheery krud, I've seen.

Hologram Max: But I know what happens next.

Max: Flowers just for you! Happy Birthday, Mum!

Queen Katheter: FLOWERS?!

-Draffsack snatches the flowers and throws them on the ground.-

Draffsack: FLOWERS? ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?!

Max and Hologram Max: What have I done?

Queen Katheter: You let me down again. You always let me down. DON'T EVEN SOUND LIKE ME!

-Draffsack stomps on the flowers. Hologram Max tries to stop him but is grabbed by Hologram Synapse.-

Draffsack: Why couldn't he give us soap on a rope like any normal son?!

Hologram Max: At the time, they didn't understand what the Verigreens were doing was good. All the Kruds care about is destroying their territory, taking their flowers and burning them as fuel.

Hologram Synapse: We were there before them and the prism changed everything and went against the veries. It would go on until Magus showed us the future and what we saw was tragedy for us and them. Thanks to him, we're now in alliance.

Hologram Max: Right! If there are any other tribes out there in Planet Krud, we'll be there to encounter them! If we do find a way home that is.

-Then they see something glowing behind them. They turn and see Max crouching, looking at the flowers as they grow. Hologram Max comes to him and crouches and watches as well.-

Max: That's amazing! That's incredible! That's beautiful!

Hologram Max: Just as I thought it would be.

质量门禁：Verigreen开启Git的Commit门禁

Verigreen 是一��轻量级的Git的checkin的门禁，通过Verigreen可以保护代码分支不受污染。

Verigreen看好质量门禁的大门

在很多情况下，RD提交了他的代码后就会触发CI的流程，当CI的后面会跟着CD进程。但是如果在这个过程中最开始提交的代码就有一些问题，如果CI/CD过程没有门禁卡点，代码仓库的主干代码就被污染了。

如果有Verigreen，那么当RD提交代码给对应的分支的时候，提交的代码如果没有经历任何验证是无法成功提交到代码仓库中的。

Verigreen flow

在我们提交代码到git仓库的时候，有很多优秀的模式，例如GitFlow模式等，那么我们权且把使用Verigreen的模式叫做Verigreen Flow吧。那么VerigeenFlow模式是如下工作的：

insektober day 30: fun

Just a bunch of funny bugs playing volleyball lolz

[almightyhamslice]

Insektober day 27: Pollen

Ft @emilyrosebug's black widow Verigreen, Violette!! I rlly wanted to draw her n Zarojo having tea together. I also really wanted to draw Violette's house! It fascinates me that Verigreen society is presumably flight dependent and yet Violette lives in it without wings & it made me rlly think abt how she lives as a spider in a bug world! So her home is hyper specialized specifically for her-- it's all one web with several shelves, and the lowest point is the center of the web that holds a table; her dining room! She can't really eat solid food, so the table has indentations that can hold cups and bowls and prevent them from falling, but she doesn't own any plates since she has no need for them.

Zarojo is very comfortable climbing onto Violette's web since they're friends, but I imagine most bugs would be very scared about it! After all, the web's kind of sticky and wobbly, so your average Insektor would probably stumble around and fall over! Or worry about being eaten! But I'm sure Violette only drinks other animal blood, not Insektor blood. She's not a vampire or cannibal! (though IRL black widows TOTALLY eat hymenopterans and weevils and beetles lol. So I guess she and Zarojo do have something in common even though she might eat them irl????)

I like the idea of these 2 being friends cuz they match in a lot of ways I think... I mean, they're both named after colors for one, and they're cute characters based offa scary bugs irl, so they're both a little misunderstood! Zaro is also pretty antisocial n doesn't have a whole lot of friends outside of their sister, so I think it's nice that they n Violette r pals!

Silly design ramblings under the cut:

Fun fact, I have this list of like,,, not rlly canon Insektors design conventions I follow whenever I make a new bug OC and I sometimes break them when I draw others' characters! One of them is that my designs can't/don't have normal eyelashes, which is why the only character I designed that has them, is Unity, who has antennae that look like eyelashes! Anyways so I break this rule every time I draw someone else's Insektors OC cuz it's a funny rule I made up and only I follow it LOL. If you're curious, my other 'conventions' are that the Insektors can't have eyebrows and they can't blush. They also never have accurate limb counts and they have varying eye counts lol. It's always like,, 2 less limbs and however many eyes look good in the design? Like did you know those drops on Zarojo's forehead represent their oceli? Now you do. Max straight up doesn't have oceli! I just reference them whenever I feel like it lol!

[almightyhamslice]

Insektober day 23: Fusion

Goldsturdy, the fusion of Krabouic (Drumsturdy) and Goldenrod. I designed them for @emilyrosebug's Fusion Katastrophe story; she calls them Rodbouic in the fic since I suppose it makes more sense. Though, I think Goldsturdy sounds cooler. Like a beautiful staff you hit someone over the head with! LOL.

They're a fusion of two hyper-patriotic egotists from opposite factions, so as a result Goldsturdy has NO regard for Kruds OR Verigreens and only cares about making themself stronger. Their existence is very much a sorta... toxic power trip for Krabouic. Haha, they're toxic cuz they're a Velvet Ant lolz

[almightyhamslice]

Insektober day 26: "Relax"

hahahah its another anti prompt LOL the only way this is 'relax' is cus theyre TELLING him itll hurt less if he relaxes and stops squirming LOL. I probably coulda drawn Nokturno for today's prompt but I chose violence cuz I JUST drew her!!

a while ago I had a dream where Bentley was being taught how to "light torture" a krud... so I figured I'd finally draw it! My actual dream didn't feature Crosette (I can't remember who was there with Bentley) and it was way brighter like eye piercing light but I wanted to spare your eyes so the bg is dull lol. Anyways arent Crosette and Sisyphus' color schemes so tasty looking like omg

[almightyhamslice]

Insektober day 17 : Friends

Kachhua and Iridamorous hang out! That's all rlly. They're just pals. I rlly enjoy their color schemes tbh.

FINALLY smth I remembered to post on time smfh

[almightyhamslice]

Insektober day 10: Flowers!

Suzy pays a visit to Flora's flower shop and buys a bouquet! Flora belongs to @emilyrosebug.

Suzy is my OC, she's a paper wasp queen. She's like a semi-authoritative Verigreen? It's hard to say since Verries don't rlly have traditional leaders, though Suzy feels kinship with her fellow wasps and ants and tries to better life for them any way she can! She is kind and calm, but also very protective! I think unlike her Krud analogues (Bakrakra and Prometheus to a greater extent) she isn't unhappy with her role in Verigreen society simply because there's no pressure for her to be something she doesn't want to be. She can just do her thing! And so she will. Today's a nice day for flowers, so she bought a handful from her friend!

Don't ask me abt flower size continuity or I will be VERY sad bc it took me foever to draw them LOL. I didnt have to go this far for a damn daily drawing!!! my hand hurtz...

[almightyhamslice]

Insektober day 6: Music!

This is a repeat prompt from last year! So to switch it up I drew Fulgor and Zarojo performing together. I dunno if they're friends but Fulgor loves music and Zarojo has a hidden passion for it... so they can collaborate a little! Zarojo is actually more like Aelia's friend who just sort of knows Fulgor, but they can bond thru shared interests as a treat lol.

[almightyhamslice]

Insektober day 2: Garden!

It may surprise you to know Krud City has its own garden! Of course, it must be self sufficient in order to ensure its citizens don't go hungry! Though, it's a lot different than Flowered City's gardens. The Kruds only grow microgreens, potatoes, wild onions, and rice, as anything more is seen as fanciful and decadent, and therefore a waste of the limited space the citadel can provide.

Akane and Kaboche offer helping hands in the garden by planting and watering a new bed of sprouts! They aren't carreer gardeners, they just help out when they feel like it. I could talk for AGES abt Krud n Verigreen culture ngl it is SO fucking fun I missed this sm LOL

[emilyrosebug]

Insektober 2024 Day 31 - Halloween

Happy Halloween, Everyone!

Makria invited Flynn to come to Trick or Treating. She's dressed as a vampire and Flynn is dressed as a Krud Solider but in the opposite (He's a Verigreen Solider). I do think Halloween along with the other holidays exists also in the Insektors Universe like Christmas in No Presents for Christmas.

[almightyhamslice]

"Help yourself, Kretinus! No one's around to stop us."

Insektober day 3: Patrol!

Lukanus takes advantage of his patrol duty by stealing the Verigreens' tomatoes! There's plenty in the patch so it's not like the Verries will starve, it's just generally dickish behavior. Like he bit into one with his mandibles! Have some consideration for others, man!

Kretinus is unsure about this whole situation-- he trusts Lukanus since he's his boss and his friend but he's not comfortable with stealing. He supposes Lukanus knows better than him, so he goes along with his plan. Tomatoes are pretty tasty, after all. Kretinus doesn't get to eat them very often in day to day life in Krud City since they don't cultivate them within the stump.

This is absolutely something Lukanus does repeatedly! For as loyal of a soldier as Lukanus is, he doesn't feel he "deserves" the ascetic rules and restrictions of Krud life and often picks and chooses what to follow and what to ignore. He is absolutely this way about food, and tries to be secretive about indulging in Verigreen flavors (he cannot just ask the Verries for dinner because he thinks it would be traitorous of him to treat them as equals!) so he engages in very pest-like behavior whenever he can.

[emilyrosebug]

Here's what I'm going to do this year. As this year marks the 30th Anniversary of Insektors, I'll be redrawing scenes in Chromaverse style. Since this is an AU, the scenes will be adapted in Neon City or The Chroma Dimension.

Here's an example:

This screenshot (Even though it's just a promotional image) shows The Verigreens escaping while trying not to be spotted by Wasabi.

While the drawing above the screenshot shows a fun hide-and-seek scenario.

[almightyhamslice]

Insektober day 22: Masquerade! (sorry its late)

Queen Bakrakra and General Lukanus at the masquerade ball. Lukanus wishes to dance with the queen but alas, he's a never been much of a dancer and she hasn't moved her legs this much in years.... they'd be a disaster on the dance floor.

So instead Bakrakra will stand and watch her subjects like ants, while Lukanus scours the premises for a certain ant! (FULGOR!)

This piece takes place at the same time as day 7! Same masquerade ball. The whole Masquerade thing is an episode of my rewrite (still a WIP....) and @dnpanimationstudioclone came up w the idea for it! It's meant to go between Koa the Frog and The Reskue, a transitional state between the Kruds being unable to put a face on the Verigreen threat and the Kruds recognizing Fulgor as the main threat of Verigreen resistence (and Aelia, but they don't really take her seriously since they see her as a weak butterfly)
